Oftentimes, service providers will negotiate outline agreements with multiple rates for the same service that are conditioned on some metric, such as the weather. These rates would be stored in the SAP ERP Service Master.  For example, a repair crew in the field may have different rates depending on whether the day is sunny or snowy.
